Devastation
Destruction

Ruin,
All I ever seem to bring,
And misery follows
Wherever I go

It might be better
If I was alone
And spared everyone
From my mind

All I ever wanted
Was something
And now I have
Nothing

And that’s all I deserve,

My ruination

(Just a little something light and fun for today...j/k)

If that's light, I don't want to see your "heavy."

Live for love. Without love, you don't live.

Sadly to me this sounds like such a pronouncement and futility of self. It just my read on it, but this poem sounded so sad, so final in its conclusion.

"I am not now that which I have been."
